Re the idea that Gaeilge would no longer be compulsory...the outcome we should strive for, in my humble opinion, is more fluent speakers of Gaeilge.
Therefore, change the curriculum.
“Spoken Gaeilge”, compulsory.
“Irish Language Literature”, optional.

There’s been a lot of talk about culture on this island over the last week.
I think it’s fair to say that Hurling is the perfect expression of our culture.

The word “narrative” should be banned. It’s the new “going forward”.
People everywhere talking nonsense about “narratives”.
It must be the most overused word of 2018. Terrible.

So it seems, for some, to be a patriot in 2020 and to protect fellow citizens, you
a) wear a tricolour rather than a mask
b) attack those who are trying to ensure that fact is heard over fiction, and
c) call anybody who disagrees with you a “paedo”.
Disturbing and unsettling.
